[0019] The WIFI talkback module 203 is used to: when the called terminal determines that the calling terminal has enabled the talkback function, notify, by the called terminal, the calling terminal that it is online by sending a request message, thereby enabling the calling terminal and the called terminal to perform the WIFI talkback.

[0020] That is, the present invention includes the following parts: 1, the wireless network part; what this part implements are the network coverage function of the LAN. 2, the terminal part; this part is the hardware carrier of the walkie-talkie of the LAN. 3, the walkie-talkie application software; what this software implements are functions such as searching for a user target, inputting voice data and transferring voice data.

[0021] The wireless network part: this part makes use of the relay function of the router and the WIFI roaming function to build a local area network environment, and the step of building the LAN includes: first, networking in the range of a building, according to the effective wireless range of the router, reasonably placing access points (APs)and configuring the routing relay function according to the networking situation of AP. Subsequently, all the parameters of AP are set as conditions for the WIFI roaming. Through the networking, the terminal can move freely within the network and the network would not be disconnected, as shown in FIG. 3.

[0022] The terminal part: this part is mainly terminal hardware, including but not limited to: smart phones and smart tablets.

[0023] Walkie-talkie application software: what this software implements are the walkie-talkie function of the LAN. The biggest difference from the walkie-talkie software feature in the existing network is dynamically updating the user state information by monitoring to the DHCP server, while the existing network walkie-talkie stores the state information of the walkie-talkie through the server, as shown in FIG. 4.

[0024] FIG. 3 shows a network block diagram of a wireless local area network provided in an embodiment of the present invention, as shown in FIG. 3, a plurality of wireless routers is used for networking, and the relay function of the wireless router is configured according to different situations, meanwhile, parameters of the wireless router are set for the WIFI to roam.

[0025] FIG. 4 shows a software flow chart of the application software provided in the embodiment of the present invention, as shown in FIG. 4, it includes the following steps:

in step S400, it is to enable the application program;

in step S401, it is to judge whether the phone uses a static IP address or not;

if yes, the process proceeds to step S402, otherwise, it proceeds to step S403.

[0026] In step S402, it is to prompt the user to use the DHCP service to assign an IP address; and end.

[0027] In step S403, it is to judge whether the phone has enabled the WIFI and connected to an AP (Access Point) or not;
if yes, the process proceeds to step S405, otherwise, it proceeds to step S404.

[0028] In step S404, it is to prompt the user to enable the WIFI and connect to the AP; and end.

[0029] In step S405, it is to release the obtained IP and send a DHCP RELEASE message;
The purpose is to initiate a REQUEST message again so that other users within the network can monitor that there are users entering into the network through this broadcast. Sending one DHCP RELEASE message is because that the WIFI is connected and an IP is assigned when the application has not been enabled, but then the host name carried in the DHCP REQUEST packet is the default "Android + random number", so other users in the network will not determine that there are someone online, then a RELEASE is sent to re-obtain the IP, then the host name will use "ZTE + user-defined group+ user-defined host name", and other users in the network can determine that someone are online based on these.

[0030] In step S406, it is to judge whether a user initiatively requests to leave the program or not;
if yes, the process proceeds to step S420, otherwise, it proceeds to step S407.

[0031] In step S407, it is to judge whether a broadcasted DHCP message is received or not;
if the message is received, it needs to carry out further analysis and proceed to step S410 according to the type of message, otherwise, it proceeds to step S408.

[0032] In step S408, it is to judge whether the voice data of the network are received or not;
If the voice data are received, it needs to store and play the data, the process proceeds to step S412, otherwise, it proceeds to step S409.

[0033] In step S409, it is to judge whether it needs to send the voice information or not;
If the user needs to send the voice information, the user switches on the recorder function to record and save the user voice, and perform the transmission according to the transmitting object selected by the user, then the process proceeds to step S413, otherwise it proceeds to step S406.

[0034] In step S410, it is to judge whether the received DHCP packet is a REQUEST message or not;
if yes, it proves that the user is requesting for an IP or renewing an IP address, and the process proceeds to step S415, and it further judges whether an IP is obtained successfully or not, if no, it proceeds to step S411.

[0035] In step S411, it is to judge whether the received DHCP packet is a RELEASE message or not;
if it proves that there is a user initiatively being offline, the process proceeds to step S414 to update the user state, otherwise, it proceeds to step S406.

[0036] In step S412, it is to store locally and play the received voice data;
in step S413, it is to enable the recording function, record and encode the user voice, and perform the transmission according to the transmitting object selected by the user;
in step S414, it is to update the user state to offline state;
in step S415, it is to continue monitoring whether a DHCP server sends an ACK message or not;
If yes, it proves that the requested IP address in the REQUEST message is successful, the process proceeds to step S416, or the ACK message is not received or other messages are received, it proves that the IP address is not obtained correctly, then the process proceeds to step S406.

[0037] In step S416, it is to compare the IP address and the host name in the previously received REQUEST packet with all online users in an existing phone;
If both the IP address and the host name are the same, it proves that the user is not a new user, the process proceeds to step S406, otherwise it proceeds to step S417.

[0038] In step S417, it is to judge whether the user has enabled the walkie-talkie function or not according to the host name in the previously received REQUEST packet;
as for the android system, the DHCP server uses "Android + random number" as the host name by default, and if the application program is enabled, the host name in the DHCP protocol is modified as: "ZTE + User Defined Group + user-defined host name". If the application program is not enabled, the default host name in the system will be used. Based on this, it can judge whether the walkie-talkie function is enabled or not according to whether the name includes the character of "ZTE" or not. Of course, the character of "ZTE" can also be changed. If the user has enabled the walkie-talkie function, the process proceeds to step S418, otherwise it proceeds to step S406.

[0039] The "User-defined group" and "user-defined host name" can be based on the input by the user in the interface, and the input data is saved in the database and read from the database and filled when it is used. Meanwhile, besides of "ZTE", the field can also be expanded as needed.

[0040] In step S418, it is to update the user state according to the IP address and the host name in the previously received REQUEST packet;
In step S419, it is to initiatively send a REQUEST message to notify the newly added users that I am online;
the newly added users can achieve the function of the user state update in the network.

[0041] In step S420, it is to end the application program.

[0042] Initiatively sending the RELEASE message after the application program ends is to notify other online users that the local machine is offline. When requesting for an IP address again thereafter, the host name carried in the REQUEST packet has used the default "Android + random number" in the system, and the judgment of the user state will not be affected when the users in the network instantly receive such a message.

[0043] Furthermore, herein the corresponding fields of the IP and the host name in the DHCP protocol are respectively: Requested IP Address and Host Name Address.

[0044] In addition, the walkie-talkie function is made into an application placed in the phone. For example: it can be made as a single APK in the android system to achieve the walkie-talkie function.

[0045] FIG. 5 shows a schematic diagram of software modules of an application software provided in an embodiment of the present invention, as shown in FIG. 5, it includes: a user dynamic information collecting module 501: which mainly judges the online/offline condition of a user according to the DHCP protocol; a transmitting module 502: this module is responsible for receiving voice data over the network, and sending data to the network, and sending the received data to a storing module; the storing module 503: this module is responsible for storing voices received from the transmitting module and voice information that would be sent to the network and the related user ID, IP address and other information; it is further responsible for storing the local user ID and group information; a user interaction module 504: this module is responsible for displaying the user interaction, including receiving and displaying the user state and other information of the user dynamic information module; reading and playing the voice stored in the storing module; recording the user voice, and sending the recorded voice, the destination address IP and the user ID to the storing module to store and to the transmitting module to transmit; and they are provided to the user in the form of an input box so that the user can modify the user ID and the group information and other information.

[0046] Preferably, the user interaction module 504 may have a broadcast button, a group button and a button for each online user, and the user can press these buttons to broadcast voice to all members, voice to a group of users only, or voice to a user only.

[0047] The embodiment of the present invention can transmit not only voice data, but also other data such as texts and images.

[0048] Although the present invention has been described in detail in the above, the present invention is not limited to this, those skilled in the art can make various modifications in accordance with the principles of the present invention.
